Chapter 159: Tasting with Erina (Part II)

Qi Nan and a middle-aged chef stood at the table. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The middle-aged chef pointed to one of the Chinese soups and said, "Miss Nagi Cut, this is a new dish that the contemptible people have recently researched, you can help me see what is lacking." ”

In front of outsiders, Erina Nagikiri was full of queenly demeanor, with a spoon and a bowl, she elegantly filled some clear fish soup out, took a slight sip, and sat on the chair with her eyes closed, and the atmosphere in the small hall fell silent for a while.

Xia Yu came back quietly, and the middle-aged chef just glanced at him.

"Fish head soup?" Erina Nagi opened her eyes, "In addition to fish heads, are there other main ingredients that create umami?"

"Yes, it's actually nine fresh soup, Miss Nagikiri, you taste it carefully. ”

The middle-aged chef looks ordinary, but in fact his eyes are burning, his spirit is strong, and his eyebrows are full of confidence in his work.

"No need. ”

Erina Nagi said lightly, glancing at Xia Yu who was sitting down opposite, "You can also try it." ”

She probably didn't even notice her tone, and let it go.

Noticing this detail, Qi Nan, the manager of the Danfei Building, and the middle-aged chef were surprised to look at Xia Yu.

Qi Nan took the initiative to introduce: "Chef Xia, this Chef Shen He, the head chef of our Danfei Building, was apprenticed at the age of twelve at Yangquan Restaurant in Guangzhou, and at the age of twenty, he became an artist, and he worked hard with our chairman, and it has been twenty-five years now. ”

The patriarch of the hotel!

What's more, he was once an apprentice at Yangquan Restaurant!

Xia Yu was in awe. Being an apprentice at Yangquan Restaurant for eight years is a testament to his extraordinary talent as a chef.

Seeing Xia Yu looking at him, Chef Shen nodded at him and smiled, "Try it." ”

Bringing another clean porcelain bowl, Xia Yu stood up, the spoon skimmed in the basin full of fish soup, and as the soup rippled, a few finely chopped seaweed shreds floated at the bottom of the basin like swimming fish.

"Clear soup?"

I didn't see the fish head, nor did I see other seafood ingredients, but the rich umami came to my face, Xia Yu couldn't help but take a deep sniff, and his ears seemed to hear the sound of raging waves.

After serving the soup, Xia Yu couldn't wait and took a small sip.

In an instant, the nine ingredients used to make the seafood soup seemed to float past me.

He didn't have a 'god's tongue', he could only roughly identify a few of them, muttering, "Salmon heads, shrimp, oysters, king crabs, large clams......"

"And then?"

Xia Yu tightened his eyebrows, almost calling out the names of the other ingredients, and the feeling of being covered in a mist in front of his eyes made him very unhappy.

Erina Nagikiri was about to answer and say other ingredients for him, but who knew that Xia Yu turned on the state of mental strengthening, and then drank a sip of soup, and this time he said without panting:

"Seaweed, wakame, cauliflower, sea fungus......"

"Four kinds of vegetables from the sea, five kinds of fresh from the sea!" Xia Yu exclaimed, "They are all melted into this pot of soup!"

Turning off the state of mental strengthening, Xia Yu recalled the feeling of having his taste buds enhanced and tasting the seafood soup, and he didn't speak for a long time.

Is this what a five-star chef is good at?

Looking at the crystal clear seafood soup in a daze, Xia Yu felt that he had to use a glowing recipe and make a glowing dish to be sure to defeat the pot of clear soup in front of him.

"It's not a perfect fusion, in fact, there are a lot of failures in it. ”

Erina Nagi had a different opinion, and didn't care about Shen He's face at all, pointed to the seaweed shreds floating in the soup, and snorted: "First of all, it's the seaweed shreds, and the snakes are added!"

"Seaweed, itself has a certain amount of salt, the seaweed used in this soup is wild in the ocean, it inevitably adsorbs the salt of seawater, in fact, when cooking the soup, you can take out the residual seaweed, and leave it in the hot soup, which is invisibly, increasing the salt amount of the soup!"

What Xia Yu didn't expect was that the five-star chef Shen He was not angry at all, but listened carefully, "Is there anything else?"

"Pay attention to the time when oysters are boiled and overwatered!"

"Also, the taste of the shrimp is not enough, and it is almost masked, so I think I should remove the shell of the shrimp and chop it and put it into the soup to boil, so that the taste is more sufficient!"

Next, Erina Nagikiri tasted several other new dishes one after another, and also pointed out a lot of subtle deficiencies in Xia Yu's opinion.

The five-star chef Shen He became a student instead, nodding his head constantly under the guidance of Erina Nagikiri, and even used a small notebook to record on it while listening.

No matter how stupid Xia Yu was, he reacted.

Erina Nagikiri is working, and Danfeilou must have spent a lot of money to invite her to come and try the new dishes. After all, her god-level talent, the 'Tongue of God', may be unique in the neon homeland and even in the world.

It's almost six o'clock, a big table full of dishes, just half of it, Xia Yu has to regret leaving.

"You're leaving? wait!"

Picking up a napkin and wiping his mouth, Erina Nagi followed Xia Yu in general.

Qi Nan and Chef Shen He both went out to see each other, and in the car, Xia Yu looked at Erina Nagikiri, who deliberately tilted her head to look out the window at the night, and opened her mouth, but many words finally converged into two simple words, "Thank you." ”

After that, Xia Yu rested his head on the car seat cushion, closed his eyes and pondered, but in fact, he communicated with the kitchen god space, carefully recalled Shen Herong's cooking skills in the cuisine, and then compared himself.

Soon back to the shop.

Xia Yu got out of the car, thought about it, or turned around and knocked on the window, and when the window was lowered, Erina Nagikiri's delicate face was revealed, and he asked with a smile, "Do you want to come in and sit?"

Erina Nagikiri glanced at him, didn't answer, but asked the secretary in the driver's seat:

"Scarlet Sand, what's your itinerary for tomorrow?"

"Miss, at nine o'clock in the morning, you're going to Kadozaki Senpai's restaurant'" Taki S. Amarillo's 'tasting of new dishes, at 11 a.m., is the 'Harukatei' restaurant of Kikuchien's predecessors, and at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, it is the 'Kirinoya' of Hinata Hinata seniors......"

"Hear me, I'll pick you up tomorrow morning at eight o'clock!" Erina Nagikiri sat with her chest crossed.

"Huh?"

Xia Yu blinked, and suddenly understood.

Thinking that Erina Nagikiri said that she would help him before, Xia Yu suddenly felt a heat flow in his heart.

Erina Nagikiri, this girl is going to take him to work, Kadozaki Taki, Hinata Dry, Kikuchi Enka, etc., these people are all students of the far moon who graduated as ten masters.

Some time ago, IGO showed online that Kadozaki Taki and Kikuchi Makago were four-star chefs, but recently, with his in-depth understanding of the food industry, Xia Yu discovered that IGO rating information is usually lagging behind, let's just say himself, if he is lucky and the topic is not tricky, he can pass the three-star and four-star chef assessment.

However, in fact, he is still a small two-star chef, no wonder he was despised by that Lancelot and came to the door to declare war.

"It's okay to find out the details of that group of Yuanyue graduates in advance. ”

Xia Yu suddenly looked forward to going out with Erina, eating and drinking for nothing, and by the way, let herself have a clear understanding of the strength of the five-star chef. (To be continued.) )
